L'Ugolino

L'Ugolino is a small locality set in the Tuscan countryside, between Florence and Impruneta, amid the region's characteristic rolling hills dotted with olive groves and vineyards. The area is best known for hosting one of Italy's oldest golf clubs, the Golf Club Ugolino, whose course winds through the hills and offers open views over the surrounding countryside. This makes it a peaceful base for golf enthusiasts, while still being within easy reach—around twenty minutes—of central Florence, with its museums, monuments and UNESCO World Heritage artistic legacy. The surrounding area also invites exploration of Tuscan villages such as Impruneta, known for its traditional terracotta production and local market. The Mediterranean climate, with hot, dry summers and mild winters, supports outdoor activities for much of the year. L'Ugolino therefore suits travellers seeking a stay that combines nature, sport and easy access to the cultural riches of Tuscany.
